MaVilleÉlectrique, municipal fleet electrification simulator
With the support of the Fonds Climat, IVÉO and the Fondation du Cégep de Saint-Jérôme collaborated to develop a GHG emissions calculator. The project also aimed to raise cities’ awareness of the environmental impact of trucks, notably by drafting an electrification strategy specific to the municipal world and prioritizing heavy vehicles.

Intelligent electrification of municipal fleets
Electrification scenario simulator to help prioritize investments
The simulator targets the municipal sector in order to accelerate the electrification of their fleets, notably by highlighting the different specialized vehicles available, the costs associated with their electrification, the subsidies available and the possible GHG reductions based on their specific uses. Based on a common value of “$/tonne of GHG reduced”, municipalities will be able to direct their investments to generate the best possible environmental impact.
